More test on the AMD Naples amd64 server "lodygin" shows: 1. This issue DOES NOT exist with this node deployed with Trusty. 2. This issue DOES exist with this node deployed with Trusty + T-LTS 4.4 kernel. 3. This issue DOES NOT exist with Xenial (no grub package in -proposed) 4. This issue DOES NOT exist with Xenial + X-HWE 4.15 kernel (no grub package in -proposed) 5. This issue DOES exist with this node deployed with Bionic.
More test on the ThunderX arm64 server "wright" shows: 1. (This node cannot be tested with Trusty) 2. This issue DOES exist with this node deployed with Trusty + X-HWE kernel. 3. This issue DOES NOT exist with Xenial (no grub package in -proposed though) 4. This issue DOES NOT exist with Xenial + X-HWE 4.15 kernel (no grub package in -proposed) 5. This issue DOES NOT exist with this node deployed with Bionic. ** Description changed: Similar to bug 1642298, bug 1750732 and bug 1788539 This issue was only spotted on ThunderX Cavium ARM64 system and an AMD Naples amd64 server in this SRU cycle. Steps: - 1. Deploy the ThunderX system with Trusty + X-HWE kernel (It works fine with just Trusty, however this was tested on the AMD Naples, not ThunderX since it does not support 3.13 kernel) + 1. Deploy the ThunderX system with Trusty + T-LTS 4.4 kernel (It works fine with just Trusty, however this was tested on the AMD Naples, not ThunderX since it does not support 3.13 kernel) 2. Check the efibootmgr output 3. Enable proposed, install grub-common 4. Check efibootmgr again Result: In step 2, the boot order is correct: ubuntu@wright-kernel:~$ sudo efibootmgr BootCurrent: 0002 Timeout: 10 seconds BootOrder: 0002,0000,0003,0004,0001 Boot0000* ubuntu Boot0001 UEFI: Built-in EFI Shell Boot0002* UEFI: IP4 Ethernet vNIC Controller 62:54:CA Boot0003* UEFI: IP4 Ethernet vNIC Controller 62:54:CB Boot0004* UEFI: IP4 Ethernet vNIC Controller 62:54:CC But in step 4, the boot order will be overridden: ubuntu@wright-kernel:~$ sudo efibootmgr BootCurrent: 0002 Timeout: 10 seconds BootOrder: 0000,0002,0003,0004,0001 Boot0000* ubuntu Boot0001 UEFI: Built-in EFI Shell Boot0002* UEFI: IP4 Ethernet vNIC Controller 62:54:CA Boot0003* UEFI: IP4 Ethernet vNIC Controller 62:54:CB Boot0004* UEFI: IP4 Ethernet vNIC Controller 62:54:CC - ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: grub-common 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.15 ProcVersionSignature: User Name 4.4.0-134.160~14.04.1-generic 4.4.140 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-134-generic aarch64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.29 Architecture: arm64 Date: Tue Sep 4 07:45:19 2018 SourcePackage: grub2 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Summary changed: - The proposed grub package in Trusty overrides the boot order on a MaaS deployed ThunderX system + The proposed grub package in Trusty / Bionic overrides the boot order on a MaaS deployed system -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1790586 Title: The proposed grub package in Trusty / Bionic overrides the boot order on a MaaS deployed system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1790586/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
